Durrrr wins a staggering $750k at Cap PLO

Saturday, 13 February 2010

In the cap games at Full Tilt, the play is No- or Pot-Limit but each player can only wager a set amount per hand, usually 30BBs. Phil Ivey played them intensely as practise for his WSOP final table in November.

Tom “durrrr” Dwan had an outstanding performance at the $200/$400 Cap PLO games, winning just under three-quarters of a million dollars despite only being able to win $60,000 or so per hand at the most.

Patrik Antonius continued his horrible run for 2010, dropping almost $400,000 at the tables last night. According to High Stakes DB, he is suffering from some health issues at the moment and it is affecting his game. As soon as he whacks a couple of Ibuprofen down his gullet no doubt he’ll be the game’s biggest winner again.

Cole “CTS” South has also had an enjoyable weekend, winning $600,000 largely from Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies who lost the better part of $800,000 on Friday night. However he did win the largest pot of the session – weighing in at a shade under $300,000 – when he flopped the nut straight against CTS’s top set.

Four online poker players that won prize packages into the $2,400 main event of the PPC Aruba World Championship 2016 courtesy of Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes are on their way to the Caribbean this weekend and will be joined by vlogger ‘TheTrooper97’.

Americas Cardroom has released its fifth and final sponsored video chronicling the action from the Punta Cana Poker Classic 2016, which ended on Sunday with Latvian player Eduards Kudrjavcevs taking the main event title and its $143,675 first-place prize.
